title: Self-assembly of water-soluble TPPS in organic solvents: from nanofibers to mirror imaged chiral nanorods.
abstract: Water-soluble TPPS was found to self-assemble into long nanofibers of ambiguous chirality in organic solvents, while mirror imaged chiroptical nanorods with controlled chirality were formed when (1R,2R)-(-)- or (1S,2S)-(+)-1,2-diaminocyclohexane was involved during the self-assembly.
